Excerpt from The Legal Nature of Corporations The question of the nature of corporate existence has a peculiar interest and fascination. Few writers on the subject of corporations ignore it altogether, and our courts have repeatedly enunciated their views as to what a corporation really is. The result is that our law has its accepted theory of corporate exist ence, while it can hardly be said to have such a theory with regard to the nature of contract, Obligation, or incorporeal property. If we have an accepted theory, it is worth while to examine it as to its truth. The problem of corporate existence has a much wider than Simply legal bearing. It has an even greater interest to the sociologist than to the jurist. But I have confined myself tothe corporation as a legal institution, ignoring the subject of association as a factor in economic, social, and political life.

Modern multinational corporate groups of incredible complexity conducting world enterprises through numerous subsidiaries have rendered traditional corporation law archaic. The traditional concept of each corporation as a separate legal unit clashes with modern economic realities and frustrates effective regulation when applied to affiliated corporations collectively conducting a common enterprise. In response, there is emerging a law of corporate groups directed at the enterprise rather than its corporate components. As national legal systems begin to apply enterprise law to multinationals, including their foreign companies, the resulting extraterritorial application of national law inevitably leads to international controversy. Resolution of the problems presented by conflicting national regulation of multinational enterprises presents a major challenge to international law and foreign relations law, as well as to corporation law. This volume is a comprehensive review and analysis of these major legal developments and their economic and political implications. It concludes with a pathbreaking analysis of the jurisprudential implications of the changing corporate personality in enterprise law focusing on economic organization rather than on the conceptualized legal entity of yesterday.

This book presents a thoughtful inquiry into the nature and rationale of corporate governance. The authors address fundamental questions including; What is the balance between ownership and control?; For whose interests should the company be run?; What is the institutional balance between shareholders, directors and other potential stakeholders, including the economy? Professor Dine and Dr Koutsias consider how these issues are dealt with by the jurisprudence of three major and greatly influential jurisdictions; the USA, the UK, and Germany, and also reflect on why and how the current corporate governance context in some states is defined by social, political and historical developments. The authors argue that corporate governance is crucial for the identity of each country. What is revealed in the work is that when national corporate governance is thriving it allows space for democracy to flourish. Corporate governance scholars, policy makers, LLM and LLB students of company law and corporate governance, NGOs involving issues of inequality, poverty and democracy will find this important book an insightful resource.

A share in the control is legally secured to all, although it may prove to be incapable of affecting the final act. Undoubtedly there is a strong element of trust in representative action. The interest of all the associates is a determining factor in controlling those who act as representatives. This is especially clear in the case of delegated representation, and boards of directors and other officers are generally considered and treated as trustees for the corporators. But it also applies to the quorum and the majority, for the security of the joint interests is the justification and therefore also the limitation of their power to represent. Should a majority act for their own benefit clearly adversely to the interests of the association, the minority would not be bound thereby. The difficulty in such cases lies not in the principle, but in the proof of its violation.1 There are, however, other elements in which the idea of a trust does not appear to be controlling. The quorum and the majority pursue interests which they feel to be their own, and they are justified in following their own discretion in judging what the common benefit requires, although the result will be the preferment of their own advantage over that of the minority. Acting in the exercise of their own rights, they are not accountable to those whom they bind by their action, though it may result in loss which might have been avoided by greater care and prudence. Above all while a trust is committed to a definite person or persons, the functions of representatives and represented in the majority rule are fluctuating and indeterminate, so that...
